Active Schools works with schools and communities to help make sure children start active and stay active.
The fundamental aim of Active Schools is to offer children and young people opportunities and motivation to adopt active, healthy lifestyles now and into adulthood.
Active Schools Managers and Co-ordinators recruit, support and sustain a network of volunteers, coaches, leaders and teachers who in turn deliver physical activity and sport before, during and after school and in the wider community.

The Aim
Active Schools aims to get everyone involved in giving children an active start and encouraging them to stay active as they grow up.
Active Schools does this by:

-Increasing opportunities for all children and young people to become engaged in physical activity and sport
– Strengthening pathways to participation and performance through sustainable school to community links
